Baʼuu 22
1 “Namni tokko yoo sangaa yookaan hoolaa hatee qalate yookaan gurgurate, qooda qotiyyoo tokkoo sangaa shan, qooda hoolaa tokkoo immoo hoolaa afur haa baasu.
IF a man shall steal an ox, or a sheep, and kill it, or sell it; he shall restore five oxen for an ox, and four sheep for a sheep.
2 “Hattuun tokko utuu cabsee seenuu yoo qabamee tumamee kanumaan duʼe, namichi isa ajjeese sun dhiiga isaatti yakkaan hin gaafatamu;
If a thief be found breaking up, and be smitten that he die, there shall no blood be shed for him.
3 garuu yoo wanni kun erga aduun baatee taʼe, namichi dhiiga sanatti yakkaan ni gaafatama. “Hattuun waan hate haa deebisu; homaa hin qabu yoo taʼe garuu hanna isaatiif gatii baasuudhaaf haa gurguramu.
If the sun be risen upon him, there shall be blood shed for him; for he should make full restitution; if he have nothing, then he shall be sold for his theft.
4 Horiin hatame sun sangaa yookaan harree yookaan hoolaa taanaan yoo utuu lubbuun jiruu harka isaatti argame hattuun sun dachaa baasuu qaba.
If the theft be certainly found in his hand alive, whether it be ox, or ass, or sheep; he shall restore double.
5 “Namni tokko yoo utuu lafa qotiisaa yookaan dhaabaa wayinii keessa horii tikfatuu horii isaa gad lakkisee horiin sun dhaqee kaloo nama biraa dheede, inni lafa qotiisaa ofii isaa irraa yookaan dhaabaa wayinii ofii isaa irraa kan waan hunda caalu iddoo haa buusuuf.
If a man shall cause a field or vineyard to be eaten, and shall put in his beast, and shall feed in another man’s field; of the best of his own field, and of the best of his own vineyard, shall he make restitution.
6 “Yoo ibiddi kaʼee daggala seenee akkasiin midhaan tuulame yookaan midhaan dhaabatu yookaan lafa qotiisaa gube, namichi ibidda qabsiise sun gatii baasuu qaba.
If fire break out, and catch in thorns, so that the stacks of corn, or the standing corn, or the field, be consumed therewith; he that kindled the fire shall surely make restitution.
7 “Namni tokko yoo maallaqa yookaan miʼa imaanaa namatti kennatee, wanni sun mana namichaatii hatamee hattuun sun qabame, hattichi dachaa kaffaluu qaba.
If a man shall deliver unto his neighbour money or stuff to keep, and it be stolen out of the man’s house; if the thief be found, let him pay double.
8 Yoo hattuun sun hin argamin garuu abbaan mana sanaa akka miʼa nama kaanii tuqee fi akka hin tuqin mirkaneessuuf fuula abbootii murtii duratti haa dhiʼeeffamu.
If the thief be not found, then the master of the house shall be brought unto the judges, to see whether he have put his hand unto his neighbour’s goods.
9 Namni tokko yoo qotiyyoo, harree, hoolaa, uffata yookaan miʼa bade tokko miliqsee namni tokko dhufee, ‘Kun kan koo ti’ jedhe, falmiin isaanii fuula abbootii murtii duratti haa dhiʼeeffamu. Namichi abbootiin murtii itti muran sunis ollaa isaatiif harka lama haa baasu.
For all manner of trespass, whether it be for ox, for ass, for sheep, for raiment, or for any manner of lost thing, which another challengeth to be his, the cause of both parties shall come before the judges; and whom the judges shall condemn, he shall pay double unto his neighbour.
10 “Yoo namni tokko ollaa isaatiif harree, qotiyyoo, hoolaa yookaan horii biraa imaanaa kennatee horiin suni utuu namni hin argin duʼe yookaan miidhame yookaan hatame,
If a man deliver unto his neighbour an ass, or an ox, or a sheep, or any beast, to keep; and it die, or be hurt, or driven away, no man seeing it:
11 namichi sun akka qabeenya ollaa isaa hin tuqin mirkaneessuuf fuula Waaqayyoo duratti haa kakatu; abbaan qabeenyaa sunis kakuu kana fudhachuu qaba; gatiis hin gaafatu.
Then shall an oath of the Lord be between them both, that he hath not put his hand unto his neighbour’s goods; and the owner of it shall accept thereof, and he shall not make it good.
12 Yoo horiin sun isa jalaa hatamee jiraate garuu namichi abbaa horii sanaatiif baasuu qaba.
And if it be stolen from him, he shall make restitution unto the owner thereof.
13 Yoo horii sana bineensatu nyaate taʼe immoo akka ragaa taʼuuf waan bineensa irraa hafe haa dhiʼeessu malee horii nyaatame sanaaf gatii hin baasin.
If it be torn in pieces, then let him bring it for witness, and he shall not make good that which was torn.
14 “Namni tokko yoo ollaa isaa irraa horii ergifatee horiin sun iddoo abbaan horii hin jirretti miidhame yookaan duʼe, namichi ergifate sun gatii haa baasu.
And if a man borrow ought of his neighbour, and it be hurt, or die, the owner thereof being not with it, he shall surely make it good.
15 Yoo abbaan horii sanaa achi jiraate garuu namichi ergifate sun gatii baasuu hin qabu. Yoo horiin sun kireeffamee jiraate immoo maallaqni baafame sun kiraa horii duʼe sanaa haa taʼu.
But if the owner thereof be with it, he shall not make it good: if it be an hired thing, it came for his hire.
16 “Namni tokko yoo durba hin kaadhimatamin gowwoomsee ishee wajjin ciise, inni gabbara misirrittiif malu baaseefii ishee haa fuudhu.
And if a man entice a maid that is not betrothed, and lie with her, he shall surely endow her to be his wife.
17 Yoo abbaan ishee intalattii namichaaf kennuu dide immoo namichi sun gabbara durbaaf malu baasuu qaba.
If her father utterly refuse to give her unto him, he shall pay money according to the dowry of virgins.
18 “Ati akka dubartiin falfaltuun lubbuun jiraattu hin eeyyamin.
Thou shalt not suffer a witch to live.
19 “Namni horii wajjin ciisu kam iyyuu ajjeefamuu qaba.
Whosoever lieth with a beast shall surely be put to death.
20 “Namni Waaqayyo tokkichaaf malee Waaqa biraatiif aarsaa dhiʼeessu galaafatamuu qaba.
He that sacrificeth unto any god, save unto the Lord only, he shall be utterly destroyed.
21 “Isinis waan biyya Gibxii keessatti alagoota turtaniif alagaatti daba hin hojjetinaa; hin cunqursinaas.
Thou shalt neither vex a stranger, nor oppress him: for ye were strangers in the land of Egypt.
22 “Haadha hiyyeessaatii fi ijoollee abbaan irraa duʼe hin hacuucinaa.
Ye shall not afflict any widow, or fatherless child.
23 Yoo isin isaan miitanii isaan immoo natti booʼan ani dhugumaan booʼicha isaanii nan dhagaʼa.
If thou afflict them in any wise, and they cry at all unto me, I will surely hear their cry;
24 Aariin koo ni bobaʼa; anis goraadeedhaanan isin fixa; niitonni keessan haadhota hiyyeessaa taʼu; ijoolleen keessanis kanneen abbaa hin qabne taʼu.
And my wrath shall wax hot, and I will kill you with the sword; and your wives shall be widows, and your children fatherless.
25 “Ati yoo saba koo keessaa hiyyeessa si bira jiraatu tokkoof maallaqa liqeessite, akka nama hiiqii argachuuf kennuu hin taʼin; dhalas hin gaafatin.
If thou lend money to any of my people that is poor by thee, thou shalt not be to him as an usurer, neither shalt thou lay upon him usury.
26 Ati yoo wayyaa nama biraa qabdii qabatte, utuu aduun hin dhiʼin deebisiif;
If thou at all take thy neighbour’s raiment to pledge, thou shalt deliver it unto him by that the sun goeth down:
27 wanni inni dhagna isaatti uffatu wayuma sanaatii. Wanni inni uffatee rafu biraa maali? Ani waanan gara laafessa taʼeef, yoo inni natti ol iyyate nan dhagaʼa.
For that is his covering only, it is his raiment for his skin: wherein shall he sleep? and it shall come to pass, when he crieth unto me, that I will hear; for I am gracious.
28 “Waaqa hin arrabsin; bulchaa saba keetiis hin abaarin.
Thou shalt not revile the gods, nor curse the ruler of thy people.
29 “Mataa midhaan keetiitii fi dhangalaʼaa wayinii keetii irraa aarsaa dhiʼeessuu hin tursin. “Ilmaan kee keessaas hangafa naa kennuu qabda.
Thou shalt not delay to offer the first of thy ripe fruits, and of thy liquors: the firstborn of thy sons shalt thou give unto me.
30 Loon keetii fi hoolota kee akkanuma godhi. Isaanis bultii torba haadha isaanii bira haa turan; guyyaa saddeettaffaatti garuu naa kenni.
Likewise shalt thou do with thine oxen, and with thy sheep: seven days it shall be with his dam; on the eighth day thou shalt give it me.
31 “Isin saba koo qulqulluu ni taatu. Kanaafuu foon horii bineensi alatti cabsee kam iyyuu hin nyaatinaa; foon akkanaa saree dura buusaa.
And ye shall be holy men unto me: neither shall ye eat any flesh that is torn of beasts in the field; ye shall cast it to the dogs.
